This is a long article which, even though written over a decade ago, is still a great place to start in understanding what the defining factors and inherit problems are with Modern Orthodoxy. Comment or post any questions you would like to discuss here.

Education in China vs. America
Here's a link to the NY times article that was mentioned last night. I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on:
1) To what extent does this reflect your experience in school?
2) What implications does this have for how we teach/learn torah and try to develop a "chevra l'sheim shamayim" in school?
